The Certified CISO (CCISO) program is the first of its kind training and certification program aimed at producing top-level information security executives. The CCISO does not focus solely on technical knowledge but on the application of information security management principles from an executive management point of view. The program was developed by sitting CISOs for current and aspiring CISOs. The CCISO course covers the 5 CCISO Domains with deep dives into scenarios taken from the experience of the CISOs who contributed to the building of the Body of Knowledge, course, and exam.

C|CISO is now recognized as a baseline certification for DoD IAM Level II, IAM Level III, and CSSP Manager, all specialized cyber management personnel classifications within the DoD’s information assurance workforce under DoD 8140.

• To sit for the exam after taking training, candidates must have 5 years of experience in 3 of the 5 CCISO Domains verified through EC-Council’s Exam Eligibility Application.
